Wells view

Unlike other spreadsheet views featured in the application, the Wells view is not configured using a master table. Instead, most tables on the view have Well and Time columns.

Well  Well name.  Must be 8 characters or less.

Time  Time that the well data is implemented.

The context menu for the Well view contains the following commands:

Update All Wells  Update the well completions and the well constraints from the upstream workflow for all connected wells.

Update Well  Update the well completions and well constraints from the upstream workflow for the selected wells.

The first tab on the Well view contains the Well table.  The Well table is a master list of all wells in the simulation case.  It also describes connections from each well to the upstream workflow.
